Hello, thanks for open sourcing this terrific project. I like the idea but am a little confused about usage. How do you recommend monitoring existing pipelines, with an additional pipeline or by modifying the existing one?

I actually love RStudio for what it does. In general I'm a huge CL advocate; RStudio is basically the only time I'd rather use an IDE than the terminal. Looking at data, code, and plots simultaneously is easy - I haven't found anything as elegant for Python, including pycharm.

Yes the language itself has problems. It's 1-indexed for God's sake! But if you stick to what it's good at (dplyr, ggplot2), you can get a lot of mileage. What Linus Torvalds said about C++ programmers probably applies doubly to R programmers - so yea comments are going to be sparse. And if you venture far from its core competence of data, you're gonna have a bad time. But overall Hadly Wickham and the tidyverse are driving the ecosystem forward, and R has found a great niche between python scripting and Excel/Matlab

Shifting to hybrid or full EVs was laudable five or ten years ago, increasingly less so since then. Neither producers nor consumers in the auto market care about LCA's that look at REMs and battery impact. Plus you're only as clean as your electric grid.

The only solution to the climate catastrophe was a massive change in the economy, supply chain, and western consumer culture. Hybrid car technology was a viable wedge or mitigating factor five or ten years ago. Now our only option is to adapt

Pretty sure the Sistine Chapel is doing fine

We need to form unions. That would spark the change in culture and physical fitness we need to throw our weight around.

True Christian charities probably engage in humanitarian work, like the Red Cross. Political advocacy isn't charity work. Even if you think its effectually charitable, to claim there is no difference between charity work and political advocacy would be laughable coming from a 9th grade student

Some would argue it causes "inflation" in financial markets like the US equities market

The article explicitly calls the 200 participants the world's leading experts in non-ionizing radiation. I haven't researched their credentials or examined their research. But if all existing research points in one direction, that constitutes empirical evidence. Of course methodological and statistical problems abound across all academia. The article makes existing research seem unequivocal and argues we need to conduct further research for 4G as well as 5G health effects

does anyone actually use choco for cross platform dev work?

Yes, but ublock doesn't write software that can be deployed to every device on your home network

is there empirical evidence of this type of pornography check being performed?

because you've planted malware in sheets files and your account is a honeypot to catch the baddies

I would specify that piping from curl to bash is literally effortless :) whether or not that's the best installation practice is another question

I fail to see any strong connection to Kant or german idealism in general

do you think professionalism was the main cause of people only seeing you instrumentally? if so, I'd be interested to hear more about your definition of professionalism

thanks for the link! completely agree. I strongly recommend libreoffice from a design perspective

As Secretary of State and EPA Director, Rex Tillerson and Scott Pruitt did massive damage to our diplomatic and environmental bureaucratic corps. see https://www.vox.com/world/2018/3/13/16029526/rex-tillerson-f...

Of course I couldn't deny there are deeper parts of the state than the Secretary of State

Likewise. Unfortunately, some services such as YouTube TV don't work on chromium. Also if you're not on linux, updating is a pain (you must do it manually iirc)

Won't every vehicle soon have its own IP address? Many must have them already. IoT means some devices need multiple IP addresses

Wouldn't the more apt comparison be to the folks who set up the EPA in the first place (Nixon administration I believe)?

Thanks for sharing, though Google Translate leaves something to be desired. I'm interested in how the CPP views overseas students since hearing about a small controversy at a southern US university:

Agreed. one of the most illuminating aspects of the Obama administration was the divergence between great tolerance for corporate whistleblowers on the one hand, and animosity toward government whistleblowers on the other.

Also, people cite the "more than any other administration" argument frequently, especially in media, but rarely think to mention the small sample size. nice work!

even when it's your own

source?

not sure a biologist knows more about the body than a surgeon. isn't it more like asking a surgeon to run the department?

Same theoretical capability; inferior performance and safety in general. Its versatility in the stack is, in my mind, its defining characteristic - unlike C++, it's a great scripting language that's easy to get started with- maybe the best. Like C++, it's a capable low-level, close-to-the-metal language. But I doubt it's the best choice for those cases. (We know what Linus said about C++ devs working on the kernel ... what would he say about python devs??)

Side bar, I wasn't aware it was a popular educational tool. I was taught type strong languages, and coming into Python felt like writing pseudocode. Too easy, as the Aussies would say!

regulatory capture by oil & gas companies, big ag, big pharma are also responsible for 401k growth

"The sun never sets on the British Empire" it was up there historically with Rome and Alexander's conquests (although the latter may not have constituted a bona fide empire)

This also happened with cars during the Toyota Prius scandal. For a thorough and entertaining treatment, I recommend RadioLab's "Bit Flip" episode https://www.npr.org/podcasts/452538884/radiolab

in my experience this is by far the less likely scenario, but I would like to hear from OP whether his initial work contributed to the ultimate decision
